Can a timing cover be removed with engine (girdled) in car?

[gnfanatic]

Hey Guys. This is my first motor with a rjc girdle and I don't know if the timing cover is mounted to it via bolts or the oil pan bolts go through it. I need to remove the timing cover and hoping it is like the factory setup where the front oil pan bolts need to be removed.

Thanks!

You can remove , just be careful not to break the timing cover during removal. I think there are long set screws that run through the girdle which thread into the timing cover. Or at least that's how mine is.
